Hey, Chris!
I just came across your website in the most bizarre of ways.. let me explain.
First let me say I was a huge fan of your game “Wrath of Denethenor” way back in the day when I was living in Vermont and using my old Apple ][+ exclusively (I still have it, and it still works, if you can believe it). Having been completely blown away by the Ultima series, I decided to try your game, and loved it. So, hats off to you for that.
Now fast forward – to what? 20 years? Has it really been that long? Wow…
I was recently on the D.C. metro heading to work, reading the Lord of the Rings “Return of the King” for the first time ever, and the character “Denethor” was introduced. Soon after I read about “Denethor’s wrath” referring to his attitude regarding the declining state of his army, his son, and his kingdom in the midst of a war. I thought to myself – wait a minute, that sounds familiar… except that the arch-villain was “DenethENor”. Coincidence?
So out of sheer curiosity I googled Denethenor, came across your site, and figured I’d ask you, introduce myself, and let you know there are people out there who, 20 years later, have not forgotten that wily bastard who comes after you. ;)
Cheers to you my friend, a true pioneer of the early era.
Darren
